Elon Musk’s X could start hiding likes on public posts from today: Report

X, formerly known as Twitter, could hide likes on posts from June 12, reported US-based consumer technology news platform The Verge. According to the report, likes by the premium subscribers of the social media platform were already hidden, but now the feature is being rolled out widely. Elon Musk, owner of X, has also reshared a tweet with a screenshot of the news.

After the feature is implemented, the Likes tab on users profile will be gone. Likes count will still be active and you will be able to see the number of likes on your post but the likes on other people’s posts will be hidden. You have the option to hide likes manually but with this feature will be hidden by default for all. There is still no clarity if view count will be visible.
